Oudot congratulates me on the quality of the film, on its editing, on the way the paintings are cut and chosen, and on what I say. It seems only fair to share with you the compliments I have received and which are owed to you. But I am also delighted and flattered to appear with Les Parapluies de Cherbourg, praised by some and rudely scolded by others (on television)[]". Attached: - a L.A.S. from Alfred DECAEN about his painting for the Revue du 14 juillet 1889; - 2 L.A.S. from painter Jacques PETIT to collector Édouard Chapet, 1964 (plus one from René Génis) ; KESSEL Joseph (1898-1979). 2 L.S., April-October 1968, to Abbé Casy-Rivière; 1 p. in-4 with an autograph line, on his letterhead, and 1 p 1/2 in-8.

He sent him the promised books he had requested from his publishers, and informed Dr. Bénichou, who runs the Orthez clinic, of his correspondent's possible visit etc. - October 18. He apologizes that his "constant travels devour my time and have prevented me from giving you an exact date to meet you in Paris". He thanks him wholeheartedly for visiting his wife Michèle, who has benefited greatly. She remains his major concern: "His doctors, who are also his great friends, are adamant that this time, his cure must last at least a year". He has just spent a week in Perpignan to accompany his brother Georges to see his doctor, and has often seen his friend the poet and artist Titi Coste, who is taking in a young Turk "who wants to devote himself to painting and drawing []". [Michèle Kessel was later committed to the Orthez clinic for her alcoholism] etc. Attached is a L.A.S. from Bernard Clavel to the Abbé, Villers-le-Lac April 6, 1980; ROLLINAT Maurice (1846-1903).

My dear poet, please accept my compliments on your lovely verses, unfortunately marred by the bre de sombre and the insufficient rhyme of maudit with meurtris: you see I'm speaking frankly! Remove all the little flaws like that from your manuscript, and it will be better than so many others, perfectly publishable. []; VIELÉ-GRIFFIN Francis (1863-1937). 16 L.A.S. and 2 L.S. (and 3 written by his wife Marie) to Colonel Achille Hepp, 1914-1936; approx. 52 pp. various formats, qqs envelopes (binder holes in some letters). Encouragement and parcels (cigarettes, cigars, etc.) sent to the Front for his soldiers, deaths of friends, numerous discussions on politics, the war, etc. "Germans or Krauts fight like their ancestors in the 30 Years' War [] our duty is to reduce them, to dominate them, and to show them that indeed, strength is right"; "cowardly Krauts, killers of women and little children"; "Wasn't Gal Pétain with you in Arras?". - It would seem that we are rushing as unconsciously towards a post-war period that will be more formidable than the war itself, that we have dazedly entered into a conflict that would lead to European semi-suicide"; "Cowards are few in number, but they do exist: they willingly disguise themselves as socialists", etc. 1933-1936: belles let
